Made 13 trades the month of February with 7 gains and 6 losses. I am pleased that my account is in the Black although gain is minimal. I made some trades that went as planned and made others on impulse. 

Had 5 of my first 6 trades gain and got excited! I found it EASY to throw caution to the wind but also understand now that when I did it mostly was a loss. I would see a stock spiking and would enter trade way late. Sadly, I would think it but do it anyway! When I had my head clear and thought through a plan it was mostly successful.

So, even though my initial deposit is still in my account with a small gain I made some serious mistakes. My hope is that I learned from them and do it less through March. My win percentage is 53% but my personal goal is no less than 60%.

I will wait for at least 100 hundred trades to have confidence in my win/loss percentage. If after one hundred trades it is above 60 I can begin to trust I am speculating accurately more than not and if I cut losses quick can make money trading!
